Training continues...

After my disasterous "tempo" run, I had my first long run on Friday. 8 miles! Per the schedule, I was supposed to run at about a 10:49 pace, and I ended up running it at 9:46 minute miles. Not too bad! That was the longest distance I've ever run, so I was pretty proud of myself. :)

I did miss one run last week, due to the wedding festivities. It was just a 4-mile "easy" run, so I don't think it will hurt me too badly.

I ran 5 "easy" miles last night... 9:55 minute miles. These easy runs are not all that easy around my house, due to the hills! I have speedwork tomorrow, so I'll need to go to the gym or the track. Kind of dreading that...
